ehlo,
There were few warnings in bind-dyndb-ldap "duplicate 'const' declaration
specifier".
It does not make sense to have const twice in declaration
like a "const settings_set_t const settings_default_set"
This one was false positive.
The 2nd warning revealed potential problem.
const char const * dns_str
With previous declaration, you cannot modify data, but you can modify
pointer itself.
*dns_str = "asdasd" //compilation error
dns_str++ //works fine
If you want to disable modification data and disable modification of pointer
you will need to have 2nd const modifier after star "*"
You can find some examples of "const" usage in attached file test.c or
you can read article with explanation of next declaration
"char *(*(**foo [][8])())[];"

Simple patch is attached.
